Celtics Drop Summer League Opener: Celtics 88, Magic 95

The Celtics opened the 2013 Orlando Summer League with a whimper as they fell to the Orlando Magic, 88 to 95. Despite incurring the loss, the Celtics have a lot to be excited about. We’ll be back later on today with some breakdown but until then I leave you with my favorite highlight of the afternoon:

I'm starting to come around on Olynyk (and it's not because of one meaningless game of hot shooting.) I still think he's likely to end up coming off the bench given his defensive deficiencies and limitations on offense, but that's not a bad outcome for the 13th pick in what everyone called a terrible draft, and that may be his floor. Stretch 4 is a necessary position as we enter the golden age of spacing in the NBA, and shooting is a damn good single skill to have for a 7 footer.

They should just take out entire team and play them in the Summer league. lol
